Almost all the traditional median filters concern the removal of impulse noise having a single layer, whose noise gray level value is constant. In this paper, a new adaptive median filter is proposed to handle those images corrupted not only by single layer noise. The adaptive threshold median filter （ATMF） has been developed by combining the adaptive median filter （AMF） and two dynamic thresholds. Because of the dynamic threshold being used, the ATMF is able to balance the removal of the multiple-impulse noise and the quality of image. Comparison of the proposed method with traditional median filters is provided. Some visual examples are given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed filter.展开更多

The changing in the ZnO lightning arrester block 50 Hz characteristic then can be analyzed.It was found that by applying more numbers of lightning strikes which made the arrester becoming worse,even though,actually,the lightning impulse peak current was still under the rating of the lightning arrester current.In this case for a 5 kA,24 kV lightning arrester,even though the lightning impulse peak current flowing through the ZnO lightning arrester block was still 2500 A,the lightning arrester ZnO block had already been damaged.Having been damaged,an alternating current flowing through the damaged ZnO block was about 10000 t展开更多
